Picture this guy in a red helmet and all those glorious colors in the stands behind him representing Chiefs nation. I know I know. As soon as the laughter and/or ecstasy simmers down hear me out.

I am absolutely mind blown, as are a great many elite NFL columnists right now, with the way the New Orleans Saints are handling Drew Brees contract negotiations. Here is their entire franchise, wrapped up in one shiny black and gold uniform, fresh off a ridiculous record setting season, unsigned to the long term deal he seeks with less than 5 days before the July 16 deadline for franchise-tagged players to sign long term extensions. And Brees doesnít appear ready to flinch one bit. Reports say heís wiling to sit out into camp, and perhaps into the season. I donít personally believe that he wonít be flinging the rock come Week 1 at home against RGIII and the new look Redskins, (or Week 3 when Romeo and the boys storm into the Superdome), but dream with me for a few glorious minutes

... it's good to be able to look back on stuff like this and have a good laugh/collective sigh of relief, :lol:.

Who wrote that? Herm Edwards?

So take Brees - Sean Payton, Coleston, Graham, Sproles, and Moore.. Add Bowe, and Breaston, and frikken Romeo Crennel... and that is supposed to be a "Dream Team".

Shift to ludicrous speed.

Romeo got the Chiefs that win against the Packers last season. There's some love in KC for him. On a side note the rumor for that KC win is that quite a few of the Green Bay Team spent a lot of time and money at an expensive drinking establishment in Crown Center and got schnockered into the wee hours of the morning of game day. Win by hang over =)

A win is a win... But if you have only one win "to speak of" in a season that isnt much..
